Sea World on Spring Break

This year we didn't do too much for Spring Break.  Jason and I worked for the most part so that we could save our PTO days for our big vacation coming up in June.  However, on Friday, the last day of Spring Break, we headed to Sea World with our good friends, Wendi, Cooper, and Kati Williams!  It was the first time that we had been in over a year.  I must say, it felt great to go to Sea World without a diaper bag or stroller!  It was crowded, but we had a great time!  Cooper and Kati then got to spend the night the next night.  The kids were in heaven.  It was a great treat for Spring Break!

Trophies!

To celebrate the end of a great basketball season, Upward Bounds had a really fun closing ceremony.  There was great entertainment and fellowship.  Kennedi's team then went to dinner afterwards and got their trophies.  Fun times!

The Razorbacks

Carson had a great basketball season.  Something really turned for him.  Carson began to really become aware of the court and his surroundings.  He was often the lead scorer on his team, and began to excel at defense, blocking shots and defending his opponent.  We talked to Carson a lot about teamwork, sharing the ball, etc.  He was definitely a standout this season.  He was one of the older ones in his age bracket and of course, the tallest on the court.  I was often very proud of him and his emerging basketball skills, but my proudest moment came during the last game.  There was a kid on the other team that had not scored all season.  The opposing coach asked Carson to take it easy on him so that maybe he could make a basket.  All of a sudden I look up and Carson is encouraging the other team to pass the ball to number 5.  He totally opened up the lane and made it easy for the little boy to get very close to the basket for a shot.  Although #5 didn't score, I am so proud of Carson for trying to give him the opportunity.  In another instance, there was a little boy on our team that hadn't scored much.  Near the end of the game, Carson passed the ball to Grayson under the basket and he scored!  I am so proud of Carson for excelling at basketball this season, but also for being a great team player and understanding what it means to be a good sport.

Kennedi plays Basketball!

It was her first time to play basketball, but our little fireball had so much fun!  Like all of the others, she got a little confused between offense and defense, but had a great time running up and down the court.  This season was a great introduction to the game.  Kennedi had fun and I hope that she will continue to play as she gets older!

 

 

Kennedi and Daddy

Jason was able to share a taco with Kennedi at Rainbow Station for the Rodeo kick-off.  She has him wrapped around his little finger!

Tacos with Tot

At Rainbow Station, it was Taco Day to kick off the San Antonio Rodeo!  Due to schedules, we had to divide and conquer.  I had tacos with my ToT (aka Cade) and Jason had a taco with Kennedi!  (Will post his picture when I can get a hold of his phone!)

Little Aggies!

I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to snap this picture of my two littlest Aggie's.  Oh, how proud they make their daddy!
